ABSTRACT Percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) for chronic total occlusion (CTO) is an extremely challenging procedure, with intramyocardial hematoma (IMH) being one of its rare yet severe complications. In this report, we detail two cases of IMH occurring during PCI for CTO, emphasizing the importance of avoiding catheter pressure entrapment and ...
